This is something I'm interested in too. My brother has a PS3 and I 
thought it was great when MythTV got the UPnP add on, but it's not that 
easy.

The MPEG streams captured from DVB are not always very 'clean' and 
although MythTV is fairly good at extracting what it needs, other 
players (PS3) need things in a cleaner form. That is why sometimes you 
will get no sound, or picture, or anything!

I tried to remedy this by transcoding but then of course the files are 
.nuv and the PS3 can't read them.

Perhaps someone could clarify this as I could be wrong.
